... the extra phosphorus can be bound up scientists say "sequestered" in Central Texas soils. But some of the phosphorus in dairy manure is water-soluble, so what isn't sequestered is at risk of being washed off into streams and rivers by heavy rains.Once it reaches lakes and reservoirs, phosphorus itse...

...ntifies a critical regulatory step the researchers say could be targeted as well. PGC1, which Puigserver isolated and cloned in 1998 as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard, controls gene expression in the liver and other tissues. In the liver, it triggers the conversion of fats into sugar, particularly when...

That is, if they first saw the face of a man turned 30 degrees to the left, then saw his face head-on, they said the face was turned to the right. This "adaptation effect" occ...

Among the trauma patients, researchers say "analytical noise" -- differences attributable to the testing method -- was not significant, suggesting that profiling gene reactions may provide meaningful information to doctors. The next step is for scientists to continue the experimental procedu...

"One of the things that's been nicely shown is that the organizer itself, while it was originally identified in newts, is conserved through all vertebrate evolution," Khokha said. "If you cut ...

The members of the research team from the University of Pennsylvan...

Next steps include more investigations on inhibitors of the NADH biochemical pathway in TB, and the development of high-throughput sc...

The enriched mice may have been better equipped than their less-stimulated counterparts to sweep these peptides out of the brain, according to the researchers' analysis of gene and enzyme...

The authors can't say why skeletal muscle would harbor cardiac stem cells, but for now, the Spoc cells provide a valuable tool for studying heart cell differentiation. And with time, they might prove an important resource for developing cell-based therapies for heart dise...

Researchers say this may reflect a low density of genes on the ancestral chromosome that gave rise to the X chromosome, or it may indicate that genes coding for key proteins that are required in double dose were transferred from the X chromosome to other chromosomes...

To solve the problems of poor people and wildlife where they actually live their lives is more complicated. It is what we try to do, and it will make the difference between a slo...
